Wind Charge Reset

WindCharge Reset

Bring the competitive Minemen Club (MMC) "Spear-Mace" movement meta to your Spigot or Paper server!

WindCharge Reset is a lightweight, high-performance plugin that allows players to cancel their falling momentum in mid-air using a Wind Charge, without losing forward speed or suffering from camera snaps.

✨ Features

• MMC-Style Mid-Air Explosion: When a falling player throws a Wind Charge downward, the plugin schedules a mid-air explosion exactly 1 tick later (50ms). The projectile is removed, preventing it from flying all the way to the ground.
• Horizontal Momentum Preservation: Unlike generic resets that stop you dead in your tracks, this plugin tracks your movement and retains your forward/strafing speed while setting your vertical fall velocity to exactly 0.0.
• Buttery-Smooth Flicks: No teleport packets are used for the velocity override. This means client-side mouse movements and ticks are never overridden, allowing you to flick, turn, and aim at targets during the reset without camera stuttering.
• Fall Damage Negation: Resets the player's fall distance upon triggering the reset, preventing instant deaths when landing.
• Smart Ground Bypass: Automatically disables the reset if the player is standing on the ground or jumping within 2.5 blocks of solid ground, ensuring vanilla jump-boosting and launcher setups still function perfectly.
• Real-Time Debugger: Includes a built-in debug mode that prints trigger logs directly to your chat (e.g., explaining if pitch, fall distance, or ground checks blocked a reset).
